Geometric models for calculating cell biovolume and surface area for phytoplankton
Abstract
Phytoplankton biovolume can be measured or calculated through the calculation of similar geometric models. A set of geometric models is suggested for calculating cell biovolume and surface area for 284 phytoplankton genera in China Sea waters. Thirty-one geometric shapes have been assigned to estimate the biovolume and surface area of phytoplankton cells. Reductions of error and microscopic effort are also discussed. The model has been verified by its application in the China Seas regions. The software to make these calculations is available at http://www.ouc.edu.cn/csmxy/sunjun/biovolume.htm

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
